How do I sign up my son?
Signing up is easy!! Just click over to the "Contact Us" page and shoot an email to one of the leaders and someone will contact you with all the information you need, or better yet, check out the calendar for the next meeting time and place, usually at South Park Elementary School, and drop by for a visit. You can either sign up right then or just check it out and see if it is right for you and your family.

What do cub scouts do?
The simple answer, have fun!! Cub scouts allows a boy to experience new things while learning real world skills that will help him in life. He will also learn how to make friends and how to treat people with respect and in turn will earn the respect of others. The cub scout program consists of age appropriate indoor activities, crafts, and games as well as outdoor exploration. Oh, by the way, we do get to go camping as well!!

Can my younger children attend the meetings?
Of course!! Cub scouts is a FAMILY oriented program. If your younger kids aren't old enough to join they are still welcome to come to the meetings and participate in the activities of their older brother. When we go camping, the whole family is invited to join us.

Do you rough it when camping?
We do family car camping. What this involves is you load up anything you think you might want or need and bring the whole family camping. We DO NOT ROUGH IT!! We sleep in tents with air mattresses. We take gas grills. If you want to rough it, you are more than welcome to do so, but all we want to do is introduce the boys to the out doors, not teach them survival skills. The only thing we ask that you DO NOT bring is electronic games and toys. The boys are there to enjoy nature, not zone out on video games.

What does the pack provide when camping?
The pack brings a large dining fly where we do all our cooking. We also take up money before each camping trip to purchase food for supper. The pack will cook a large supper for everyone to enjoy. You are responsible for providing tents, sleeping bags, drinks, snacks, and lunch for your family.
